New for 2011-Jeep

The Patriot, Wrangler, and Wrangler Unlimited also receive a series of improvements for the new model year
History
The Jeep brand originated more than fifty years ago, during World War II. The United States government was looking for an inexpensive and rugged off-road reconnaissance car, so they asked dozens of companies to submit bids. After a series of tests, the contract was awarded to Willys. The original "model MB" was soon nicknamed the "Jeep," and the name stuck. The company was bought by AMC in 1970, and then sold to its current owner, Chrysler, in 1998.
Today, Jeep is one of the world's oldest off-road-vehicle manufacturers. The original Jeep lives on as the "Wrangler," but today it is offered in 2- and 4-door configurations. The current model lineup contains a range of off-road sport utility vehicles with up-to-5-passenger seating capacities. All Jeep vehicles run with gasoline powerplants. Models include front-, rear-, and all-wheel-drive powertrains. Jeep vehicles are manufactured in North America and sold around the globe.
